I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
By faith on Canaan’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.

I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till rest I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till rest I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.”

I woke up this morning with this beautiful song on my mind, though it came as a surprise to me because I hardly remember anything like dream when asleep but I thank the Almighty God for his grace on this one. Alleluia.

It was after a night that God renew my feet/legs..
He gave me this song to sing but it was only the chorus I know and as a result, I googled it and sang it to the glory of Elohim Of Israel who has made me to stand on a Higher Ground...
Alleluia !!!

I have been battered and bruised of late
I have been pressed and stressed
I started to sing this song
And of this I was reminded
Of Heaven's peace I do long
In God's arm I am residing
This song has the power to calm a bruised soul
Amen

This is the song that was given to me by the Holy Spirit. All I heard was Higher Ground.
I heard this song when I was a child so I had to Google it.
Just thanking God for His faithfulness. Was feeling a little down. Thank you Father. Son. And. Holy Spirit. Amen.
